About: I absolutely love dogs! Some might say I'm dog-obsessed. 💕 🐕 Growing up I was frequently around dogs. I was often the first person my neighbors would ask to take care of their dogs and cats while on vacation. Every once in a while I would also accompany my aunt to dog shows where she sold handmade dog beds and I got to interact with dogs of all kinds. My experience walking, feeding, and administering medications (including providing shots to cats!) has led others, including other family members, their friends, and even strangers (aka new friends) to trust me in taking care of their pets while they are out of town. Being around dogs is often the highlight of my day. I greatly look forward to meeting and taking care of your pet(s)! My weekday schedule is rather open and flexible. I am currently furloughed and looking to fill my day with some friendly dog faces while I do some job searching! I am very diligent about following the rules clients outline to care for their pets. It is of the utmost importance to me that you know I will follow the instructions outlined to ensure the safety and security of your pet family members.

Allie was great! She was extremely responsive throughout the entire process. From the beginning, she confirmed the stay within minutes, came over to meet Nahla beforehand and provided updates/photos throughout the weekend. Nahla is a bit shy at first but it looks like it didn't take long for them to get along. I would absolutely reccomend Allie to pet sit and will certainly use her again.

About: I’ve loved dogs my whole life and have raised mine from puppies. I’ve also happily walked, house-sat for, and boarded friends’ dogs in times when I didn’t have one of my own. I’m planning a career transition and will be working on a personal creative project, so I will have a flexible schedule to respond to pet parents’ needs during busy work days. Regular walks are important for a happy and healthy pup! When I walk my own dog, I follow routes that will keep us both safe and am always careful in any interactions with other dogs, especially if we don’t know them. I’d do the same for your pet and abide by any specific instructions you might have!

About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was a teen, mainly my own family dogs as well as family and friends’ pets. I have experience with puppies, elder dogs, and everything in between! I have house sat as well as cared for pets in my own home. As a graduate student, I am very flexible with times. I play volleyball on Sunday and Wednesday nights when not pet sitting. I have family visiting and graduation events during the next couple weeks, but my calendar has been updated to reflect known events and days where I will not be available. I am very respectful in other people’s homes, and I am focused on your pets’ safety and needs. I will follow your instructions since you know your pet best, and l love to give playtimes and snuggles!

About: I’ve been caring for friends’ and family’s pets for as long as I can remember, and nothing makes me happier than the company of a furry friend. I’ll treat your cat or dog with the same love and attention I give my own. I’m also comfortable giving medications if your pet needs a little extra care. I’m taking a little break to recharge and explore new opportunities — and what better way to spend it than caring for pets! I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your furry friend the attention they deserve. We have a two bedroom home that will allow space for your pet while you’re away & space to allow them to warm up to our own pets. At your home, I’ll stick to your pet’s usual routine to keep them happy and comfortable. In my care, my pets are fed twice a day, enjoy plenty of active playtime, and get lots of outdoor fun with walks and backyard games throughout the day. I’ll make sure your furry friend feels right at home, wherever they are!

Michael recently cared for my 5 year old Scottish Terrier, Sophia. Michael walked, fed, and cared for Sophia for nearly a week. Although Sophia had briefly met Michael before, she had not spent any length of time with her. Because of Michael's rapport and her gentle nature with dogs, Sophia immediately warmed up to her. Michael sent photos of Sophia while she was caring for her and updated me with their daily activities. It was easy to tell when I returned home that Sophia was happy, healthy and well cared for. I have known Michael all of her life. She is a mature, responsible and caring person, who is passionate in her love for dogs. Michael is trustworthy and will go out of her way to accommodate any client and their pet. I highly recommend her.
